In this paper, we described the real-time implementation effort of MPEG-4 audio HVXC (Harmonic Vector eXcitation Coding) algorithm for very low bitrates, which has target applications from mobile communications to Internet telephony, on current high performance floating point TMS320C6701 DSP. We adopted a hardware structure for real-time operation. In order for software optimization, we used C- and assembly-language level optimizations for time-critical functional codes. Utilizing the internal program memory of the DSP as the program cache, the internal data memory overlap technique and DMA functionality, we could get a goal of realtime operation of HVXC codec both at 2 kbit/s and at 4 kbit/s. For an encoder at 2 kbit/s, the optimization ratio to original code is about 96 %. Finally, we got the subjective quality of MOS 2.45 at 2 kbit/s from an informal quality test.

Currently, the compression is one of the most important technology in multimedia society. Audio files arc rapidly propagated throughout internet Among them, the most famous one is MP-3(MPEC-1 Laver3) which can obtain CD tone from 128Kbps, but tone quality is abruptly down below 64Kbps. MPEC-II AAC(Advanccd Audio Coding) is not compatible with MPEG 1, but it has high compression of 1.4 times than MP 3, has max. 7.1 and 96KHz sampling rate. In this paper, we propose an algorithm that decreased the capacity of AAC encoding computation but increased the processing speed by optimizing psychoacoustic model which has enormous amount of computation in MPEG 2 AAC encoder. The optimized psychoacoustic model algorithm was implemented by C++ language. The experiment shows that the psychoacoustic model carries out FFT(Fast Fourier Transform) computation of 3048 point with 44.1 KHz sampling rate for SMR(Signal to Masking Ratio), and each entropy value is inputted to the subband filters for the control of encoder block. The proposed psychoacoustic model is operated with high speed because of optimization of unpredictable value. Also, when we transform unpredictable value into a tonality index, the speed of operation process is increased by a tonality index optimized in high frequency range.

In this paper, we introduce a spatial sound rendering system that provides 6DoF spatial sound in real time in response to the movement of a listener located in a virtual environment. This system was implemented using MPEG-I AEP as a development environment for the CfP response of MPEG-I Immersive Audio and consists of an encoder and a renderer including a decoder. The encoder serves to offline encode metadata such as the spatial audio parameters of the virtual space scene included in EIF and the directivity information of the sound source provided in the SOFA file and deliver them to the bitstream. The renderer receives the transmitted bitstream and performs 6DoF spatial sound rendering in real time according to the position of the listener. The main spatial sound processing technologies applied to the rendering system include sound source effect and obstacle effect, and other ones for the system processing include Doppler effect, sound field effect and etc. The results of self-subjective evaluation of the developed system are introduced.

침체된 가전 산업과 IT 산업을 일으켜 세울 가장 유력한 기술이 홈 네트워크 기술임에는 많은 공감대를 형성하고 있는 것으로 보인다. 정보통신부가 홈 네트워킹 기술을 이용하여, 기존의 가전 시장이 겪고 있는 심각한 침체 현상을 해소하고 전 국민들의 정보화 마인드 확산을 위해 지난 2000년 3월, 인터넷 정보가전 산업 협의회를 구성하였으며, 5년 동안 약 1조 천억원의 연구비를 투입하여 홈 네트워크 및 사이버 아파트 구축을 위한 기술 개발 및 표준을 제정하고 있는 것이 이를 입증하고 있는 것이다. 이와 같은 홈 네트워킹 기술중에서 IEEE 1394 기술은 오디오 비디오 기기의 디지털화가 이루어지고 멀티미디어 환경이 부상함에 따라 이들간의 공통된 새로운 인터페이스 방식의 필요에 의해 발생한 버스 방식으로 USB가 제공하지 못하는 고속의 실시간 데이터 전송을 가능하게 해주는 차세대 핵심 기술이다. 기가비트급의 높은 데이터 전송율을 자랑하는 IEEE1394 기술은 따라서 멀티미디어 PC와 오디오/비디오 등 높은 대역폭을 요구하는 가전기기를 하나로 묶어줄 수 있는 유일한 기술이며, 그 위에 TCP/IP 프로토콜을 얹어서 인터넷과도 직접 연결될수 있다. 본 고에서는 홈 네트워킹의 기본 개념을 살펴보고, 홈 네트워킹의 중심으로 판단되는 Digital TV와 주변 가전 기기 사이에서 MPEG2-TS신호의 실시간 전송을 가능하게 하는 디지털 인터페이스 기술인 IEEE1394와 그 관련 기술의 동향에 대해 소개하였다. IEEE802.11a 기술을 이용한 무선 1394 기술은 댁내 전반에 산재해 있는 이러한 가전기기를 연결시켜줄 수 있는 Home Network Backbone이 될 것으로 전망된다.

본 논문에서는 디지털 데이터 방송에서 동기화 데이터 서비스를 제공하기 위한 전송 시스템과 이를 이용한 동기화 데이터 서비스 방법을 제안한다. 데이터 방송을 통해 전송되는 부가 데이터는 그 특징에 따라 비동기, 동기, 동기화 데이터로 구분된다. 이들 중 동기화 데이터는 사용자의 선택에 의해 데이터 방송 수신기에서 재생되는 비동기 데이터와는 달리 비디오 또는 오디오의 특정 장면에 통기되어 재생될 수 있는 데이터고서, 데이터를 전송하는 단계에서 데이터가 재생되어야 하는 시전의 시간 정보인 재생시각이 함께 전송되는 특징이 있다. 동기화 데이터의 이와 같은 특징으로 인해 현재 대부분의 데이터 방송에 사용되고 있는 비동기 데이터 서비스를 위한 전송 시스템은 동기화 데이터의 전송에는 부적합하며, 동기화 데이터 서비스를 위해서는 새로운 전송 시스템에 대한 연구가 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 데이터 방송을 동해 동기화 데이터 서비스를 제공하기 위해 기존의 비동기 데이터 전송 시스템에 MPEG-2 오디오/비디오 TS(Transport Stream)를 출력하는 장치와 동기화 데이터를 다중화 하는 장치를 추가한 새로운 동기화 데이터 전송 시스템과 이를 이용한 동기화 데이터 서비스 방법을 제안한다

It supports floating-point operations needed in the geometry stage of 3D graphics. It adopts partitioned SIMD to reduce hardware costs. Conditional execution of instructions is used for easy development of parallel algorithms.

This paper proposes a new IFFT(Inverse Fast Fourier Transform) algorithm, which is proper for IMDCT(Inverse Modified Discrete Cosine Transform) of MPEG-2 AAC(Advanced Audio Coding) decoder. The $2^n$(N-point) type IMDCT is the most powerful among many IMDCT algorithms, however it includes IFFT that requires many calculation cycles. The IFFT used in $2^n$(N-point) type IMDCT employ the bit-reverse data arrangement of inputs and N/4-point complex IFFT to reduce the calculation cycles. We devised a new data arrangement method of IFFT input and $N/4^{n+1}$-type IFFT and thus we can reduce multiplication cycles, addition cycles, and ROM size.

This paper presents a generation method of test streams for verifying conformance of an UHD broadcasting receiver including decoders for video and audio as well as parsers for PSIP and closed caption data. The proposed test streams for video/audio signals can evaluate conformance of HEVC, AC-3 and DTS-HD standards. Especially, test streams for HEVC video compression standard can be used for testing syntax compliance and error resilience for a HEVC decoder. Moreover, the proposed test streams for system/program and closed caption can be applied for verifying parsers for PSIP and CEA-708 standards.
